In its natural habitat, the plants grow in an unusual acidic clay in the Redco Soil Series. However, I have grown several plants from seed and they seem to thrive in low pH sand and high pH black clay. They do well in disturbed areas such as roadside and other ROW in the wild as well.

This is a recently discovered and named (2003) Yucca of uncommon grace for this genus. It may be endemic to Jasper and Newton counties in E Texas. The bloom stalk rises to about 7' and the leaves are about 18" long. Beautiful pale blue-green foliage is soft with smooth edges but still has a nasty point. The plants photographed are offsetting and are about 3 yrs old. I'm not a Yucca fan, but this one is exquisite.
